Dow 38,000 and Beyond

January 25, 2024 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Let’s not get too excited about Dow 38,000. Your Survival Guy remembers when we hit Dow 10,000 in 1999. As you can see, we crossed that bridge again and again.

What’s always amazing to me is how short the average investor’s memory is (you’re not average, dear reader). Look how long it took for Dow 10,000 to gain some terra firma. Then, look at how long it took for NASDAQ. Not pretty, as an entire generation was lost to price wars—prices were stagnant.
